How to

Home security is a leading demand, since every day someone dies or falls injured to fire, carbon monoxide, burglary, etc. One of the main reasons that people die or fall injury to fire and/or carbon monoxide is because they fail to maintain or install CO alarms or smoke detectors. The smoke detectors and CO alarms can save your life. Still, once you install the alarms you must keep the systems free of dust particles. Dust particles can make the alarms sound. In addition, the batteries must be replaced as needed. You should also test your alarms at least once each week. Don't be like those people who install fire and CO alarms and leave it at that. The majority of deaths and/or injuries related to fire and/or carbon monoxide is for this reason alone.

Home Security Tips
Tip: After 1998, new carbon and smoke alarms were designed by technology, which the alarms sound like horns. It is important that your children, you, and your family members become familiar with the sound.

The new smoke alarms today make horn sounds, which work in patterns. The sounds may repeat loudly, beep, pause, and send three additional beeps before pausing again. Learn the patterns. CO alarms are similar, in that the alarms produce a loud sound, repeat the horn sound, and sends out four beeps before it pauses. The alarm will then send another four beeps before it pauses again. CO alarms are similar to smoke detectors, in that the alarms sound off when carbon levels put you at risk. Fire alarms sound off when smoke accumulates in the air.

TIP: Even if you experience a small fire that you feel you can handle, call 911. Once you extinguish the fire get out of the home. The firefighters will help remove smoke from the home, as well as search for hidden fire. Fire will hide itself. Therefore, never assume that you have completely removed fire from your home.
The one thing you should teach everyone in your family is that help is only a telephone call away. Children should learn that lighters and matches are for adults only. Inform you children what could happen if they fail to heed warning.

In addition, your children should be educated about fire extinguishers, smoke alarms, fire hydrants, water buckets, and garden hose. The hose and water buckets can be used to put out smaller fires, yet it is important that children call 911 instead. The firefighters are minutes away from your door and can handle even small fires better than your children can. Firefighters train in fire and these men are aware that even small fires can become deadly. Fires tend to hide.

Tip: Not every area has 911 emergencies. Therefore, check your area to learn what your emergency contact is. Post the information on your refrigerator.

In addition, teach your children to leave the home immediately if a fire starts. Tell them to call the emergency phone number at your neighbors home.

Plans are important. Planning helps you to avoid dangers. With this in mind, we can layout a floor plan to help you teach your children what to do in the event of fire. Remember to practice regularly.

How to lay a Floor Plan You want to draw an outline of your home. Include windows, kitchen, dining room, bathroom, bedrooms, living room, dens, etc. All hallways near bedrooms should have smoke alarms installed and checked regularly. While you write the plan, allow your children to help you choose two ways out of the home in the event a fire occurs. Make sure you choose two ways out of each area. In addition, make sure that your family chooses a meeting place outside of the home in the event a fire starts. Once you finish the floor plan be sure to post it somewhere where everyone can view it. Once you finish your plans, be sure to plan weekly or monthly fire drills.
